Hard to believe we are in part 11. Normally, bball recruiting would have been "put to bed", as it were,by this point in the spring; however, its a brave new world in college hoops, what with the transfer portal. Holtmann and staff still searching for the elusive piece of the puzzle, that is, a rather tall, athletic big guy to compliment EJ. Efton Reid's mom still hasn't decided on anything, and no one can blame fans for moving on from the drama. First, an announcement(no time given) on April 15, in big bold twitter words, then 3 weeks of speculation, a crystal ball to Pitt, a crystal ball to FSU, and...oh, we gonna not decide right now. Lol. I am sure Holtmann and staff are losing their proverbial minds at this point, and loyal fans are questioning the rumored backup plan(s). Joey Brunk?(11W insider and Adam Jardy, from the Dispatch are saying this is distinct possibility) Has the staff put all their eggs in one basket? A reminder that to this point, only Musa Jallow has entered the portal. Still no decision by Kyle Young on whether or not he returns next year. EJ and Duane exploring the NBA, without signed agents. Jamari Wheeler transfer in from PSU.

Anyways, we(consistent commentors on this thread) have kept this discussion lively and polite, maybe just because we have less expectations of landing every 5 star recruit that comes down the pipeline. Will leave it to y'all to carry on....Go Bucks!
